The greatest of all tragedies must be
that of the person who dies just
outside the gate of life. They are
standing, as it were, just outside the
Wicket gate to the church grounds –
seeing the beauty of the building,
knowing the people going in – but not
stepping over the threshold
themselves.Almost saved but altogether
lost.
This is a book of immeasurable value to
those who have some knowledge of the
Christian Faith but who are resisting
God’s call to commit their lives to
him. No Christian should be without a
copy, to either lend or give away to a
friend or acquaintance who may be
lingering at the gate.
‘Around the wicket Gate’ is written in
Spurgeon’s unique style - sharp,
penetrating, and easily readable. One
of the most quoted preachers of modern
times, his sermons have proved to be a
blessing to millions. For someone
thinking about Christianity, who has
yet to accept Christ as their saviour,
reading this book could be the most
important step they ever take.
